The Collective is a curated convening for people of color who are committed to their professional growth, giving and receiving support, and networking with like-minded peers. We host monthly sessions, including panel discussions, guest speakers, mentorship circles, workshops, and locally relevant programs, all focused on professionals of color. Members outside of NJ are welcomed. “Our mission is to accelerate and enhance the professional development, information access and opportunities for nonprofit professionals of color through intentional, curated experiences.” “We envision a network of equity-driven leaders of color, supported in deepening their equity analysis and leadership skills as agents of change in the nonprofit sector and through the executive pipeline.”
